Supporting the Growth of a National Accounting Firm Through More Than 100 Strategic Placements

Large national accounting and advisory firm

OVERVIEW

Over a three-year period, Hunton Blake supported one of the firm’s largest regions through a significant growth phase, completing more than 100 placements across leadership, management, and experienced professional levels spanning more than 25 offices.

Sustained, high-volume recruitment at this scale requires more than a strong network. It requires a firm that understands the market well enough to maintain quality across every level and every geography.
THE CHALLENGE

The firm was experiencing substantial growth while simultaneously expanding service offerings, strengthening leadership teams, and supporting succession initiatives across a large geographic region. The hiring mandate covered both major metropolitan offices and smaller regional locations, where talent acquisition challenges were often more pronounced.

THE APPROACH

Hunton Blake acted as a strategic recruitment partner across multiple service lines, including Audit & Assurance, Accounting, Advisory, Financial Consulting, and Partner-level hiring. Particular emphasis was placed on identifying high-potential professionals capable of progressing into future leadership positions, ensuring placements contributed to both immediate capacity and long-term organizational growth.

THE OUTCOME

More than 100 placements completed over approximately three years, including Partners, Senior Managers, Managers, Senior Accountants, and advisory professionals across the country.

POST-PLACEMENT IMPACT

The firm successfully expanded key service lines, strengthened leadership depth, supported succession planning efforts, and continued its growth trajectory across the region. The engagement remains one of the largest sustained recruitment partnerships Hunton Blake has executed within the accounting sector.
